What his chart says about him

  1. Who he is

    Sun in Leo, the Bright One

    Big-hearted and bright. Brings warmth into a room and loves to see other people do well. Imagination and identity work together: he can become a character, a mood or an idea, and make others believe in it.

    The Sun sextile Neptune (exact at 0.0°)

  2. What he needs

    Moon in Scorpio, the Vault

    Feels hard and shows little. Needs loyalty, privacy and a few people worth trusting completely. He loves hard and holds on hard, and letting go takes him a long time.

    The Moon square Pluto (almost exact at 0.3°)

  3. How he loves

    Venus in Virgo, the Quiet Romantic

    Modest in love and devoted to the bone. Proves feelings through actions rather than speeches. Words with charm in them: he has an ear for a beautiful phrase, and people like listening to him.

    Mercury conjunction Venus (wide at 5.0°)

  4. How he thinks

    Mercury in Virgo, the Analyst

    A careful, exact mind. Spots the flaw, fixes the plan and gets the wording just right. The facts and the bigger picture need constant reconciling, and he keeps checking one against the other.

    Mercury quincunx Jupiter (almost exact at 0.9°)

  5. What drives him

    Mars in Cancer, the Defender

    Driven by feeling. Goes the furthest for something personal, and guards home fiercely. His drive and his discipline work together easily: he can push hard and keep going.

    Mars sextile Saturn (wide at 4.7°)

  6. The shape of his chart

    In his chart, his mind, his heart and his discipline (Mercury, Venus and Saturn) gather in Virgo, and that part of life draws his attention first.
